Abstract

A system includes a utility meter 30. The utility meter 30 includes a sensor 60, 61 configured to detect a utility usage, a processor 46 configured to determine an ambient temperature of the utility meter 30, and a memory 48 configured to store a data collection system 70. The data collection system 70 is configured to be utilized by the processor 46 to store the utility usage at least partially according to the ambient temperature of the utility meter 30.
